SDK - use to change variables

I am new to the SDK. Is it possible to use the SDK to continually adjust data in the resource input file? For example I want to change the wet bulb temperature for the next hour based on the results of the previous hour's simulation.

The pvwattsv5_1ts module runs a simulation for a single time step for a photovoltaic system. The other performance models run a simulation over an entire year at the time step determined by the weather file. I don't think there is a practical way to
do what you describe.

regarding this topic, replicating the tcsmolten_salt module in the SSC SDKtool through the MATLAB wrapper I am now trying to modify the heliostats' reflectance every time-step (hourly or daily or weekly). The best case would be modify each heliostat's reflectance individually but even a daily/weekly heliostats field's average reflectance would be really good.

Is it possible to vary the reflectance over time? I saw thanks to the SDK that it is passed to SAM as a number, I would like to pass it as an array which contains values for every hour. Do you think there is a way to do it?

As you note, the heliostat reflectance input is a single value, so it is not possible to specify a different value for different times. An inefficient way to accomplish what you are trying to do would be to run the model for each reflectance value you are investigating, and then extract results for the time steps to which the reflectance applies. For example, with daily average reflectance values, you could run the model with one reflectance value for Day 1, and then store the results for Hours 1-24 hours, then run the model again with the Day 2 reflectance value and store the results for Hours 25-48, etc.
